Hi there,
G&L has been using the Bigsby B5 on all their ASAT models. Those guitars have a flat top. However, if your Ascari GTS has a carved, non-flat top, you should use the B7. Unfortunately, I do not have experience with the Ascari GTS and the archived webpages I have consulted do not give a clear indication whether the top is flat or has a curve, or what the dimension are to test whether there is enough space for a B7.
So in short:
flat top -> B5
carved, arched top -> B7, but check dimensions
